Vinke B defeated Wish Me Luck in the Group 2 NZ Sapling to give Vincent the quinella.
After an early speed battle, Vinke B found the front and then was able to lead and win over a game Wish Me luck who came in second after facing the breeze.
Vinke B has proven himself one of the best two year olds in New Zealand after earlier placing twice in stakes races behind Don’t Stop Dreaming.
Bred by Hazel van Opzeeland, Vinke B is out of the Bettor’s Delight mare Imke B and was a $42,000 yearling purchase by All Stars Racing Stables.
The quinella pushes Vincent to third on the New Zealand Two Year Old Sires Premiership behind only Bettor’s Delight and Art Major.
He is now the sire of five stakes horses from 29 starters.
